Details

When we bring up the search dialog, sometimes the focus goes to the browser window and so in this state we have no option left but close the window, because the search dialog is modal to the browser window. Seen on 2001040904 winNT
changing summary. nominating for mozilla 0.9/0.9.1 because you can't so much when you are in this state, except close the window.
Severity: normal → major
Priority: -- → P2
Summary: The search dialog should be modal to the browser but in some case it is just the opposite. → The search dialog is modal to the browser but sometimes the focus goes to the parent window.
i thought that search dialogs weren't supposed to be modal. [i can never remember what they are supposed to be]
I don't remember exactly whose dialog this is so I'm just sending it over to the proper component and I'm sure sairuh will make it right. btw Search -does not equal- Find.
